Ernst will add sound representation

Abiding by the U.S. Constitution made our nation powerful and prosperous in its early history.
Not complying with this unique and vital document has caused our nation to become dangerously undermined and the world's laughing stock.
The government-controlled 'educational” system and the socialist news agencies, work diligently miseducating our youth and misguiding our electorate. Our consistently conditioned populace increasingly depends on big government handouts compelling a dwindling segment of society to support a dependent ever-growing segment.
Democrats and liberal/moderate Republicans are guilty of this repugnant system, implementing ever-increasing taxes to fund this, plus other socialist atrocities.
Fortunately, The New American bi-weekly news magazine identifies these culpable scoundrels. This pro-Constitution publication, www.thenewamerican.com, features the Freedom Index every quarter, selecting 10 random votes scoring how federal officeholders vote in accordance with the Constitution, rather than by political maneuvering. No Democrat (current Index) compiled a score of over 50 points out of 100.
Extremist Bruce Braley garnered a deplorable 20, closely mimicking ultra-leftist, Tom Harkin's shameful, consistent 0 to 10.
Strong pro-constitutionalist Joni Ernst will provide sound representation, however outside, extreme leftist PACS are spending profusely, targeting and frightening the politically ignorant by airing big-oil and social security distortions. These diabolical extremists even distort her voice in scurrilous, media campaign ads, making Ernst sound feeble and clueless.
Hopefully, Ernst and pro-constitutional Iowans will prevail over this subterfuge.
